Love Apartment: The Most Reliable Person

Chapter 12 The free cloud also has a home

3601, Hu Yifei was sitting on the sofa, repeatedly admiring the check in her hand, while Lu Zhanbo sat beside her and watched silently.

"Ziqiao's godfather is truly remarkable in appearance. He doesn't look like Ziqiao at all."

"Sister, what's so strange about this? Isn't it normal that the godfather and godson don't look alike? Look, I'm so lively and cute, and I don't look like you at all." Zhan Bo spared no effort to seek death.

Hu Yifei stopped looking at the check and started looking at Zhanbo instead.

Lu Zhanbo quickly changed his tone: "If Ziqiao was half as reliable as his godfather, our DV camera wouldn't have been lost."

"If you could be half as normal as Ziqiao, our family would have prospered long ago." Hu Yifei spared no effort in educating Zhanbo.

"Look at Zhanbo, your sister has better vision than you and is good at discovering the strengths of others." Ziqiao pushed the door and walked in.

"Zi Qiao, is your brain okay? My sister isn't praising you."

"None of this matters. What matters is this. Look." As he said this, he took out the DV hidden behind his back.

"Wow, what a comeback!" the brother and sister exclaimed in admiration.

"Zi Qiao, where did you steal this DV camera?" Hu Yifei could tell at a glance that this was not the same one she had before.

"Pah, pah, pah, what do you mean by stealing? How can something that belongs to a scholar be considered stealing? It's borrowing. Meijia borrowed it from Lin Ze."

Hearing this, Zhanbo fell into deep thought: Is Ziqiao also considered a scholar?

"What do you want to do, Ziqiao? You didn't borrow this to show off to me, did you?" Hu Yifei glanced at Lu Ziqiao. How could I not know your little thoughts?

Upon hearing this, Ziqiao also stated his purpose: "Yifei, I know you are the most understanding, right? So I want to use this DV to exchange for the check in your hand, is that okay?"

"Zi Qiao, even though you just mentioned one of my many strengths, I'm still very happy, hahaha."

Zhan Bo muttered quietly: "Considerate? Considerate is more like it."

"What did you say?" Hu Yifei emitted a death ray.

Lu Zhanbo pursed his lips into a slit, indicating that he would stop talking.

"So you agree?" There was a hint of anxiety in Lu Ziqiao's voice.

"Not at all." Hu Yifei folded the check and put it into his dimensional pocket.

"Why?" Lu Ziqiao was puzzled.

Hu Yifei admired her nails and said, "Because you don't have a legitimate reason. With this money, I can definitely buy a new DV. Why should I exchange it with you? So you have to give me a reasonable reason."

"Also, no making up stories. I can tell whether something is true or false."

Seeing that Lu Ziqiao wanted to talk nonsense, Yifei directly cut off his retreat.

Lu Ziqiao was conflicted, but he finally made up his mind: "Okay, Yifei, I'll tell you the truth. Although my father and I have a good relationship, I don't want to lose you friends."

Afterwards, he briefly introduced the great achievements he and his father had made in the martial arts world.

"So, Ziqiao, you think this check is also a bad check."

"Yes, I'm 90 percent sure this is a blank check."

"What if it's true?" Hu Yifei took out the check again.

Lu Ziqiao pointed at the water cup on the coffee table and said firmly, "If it's real, then I will eat this cup."

"Okay, it's a deal." Hu Yifei clapped her hands excitedly. "Zhanbo, I leave it to you. Check the authenticity of this check. Don't let me down."

"Zhanbo also knows this?" Lu Ziqiao was shocked.

"Of course, my brother is a computer genius. Looking up these things is a piece of cake for him, no problem." Hu Yifei waved her hand with pride on her face.

After a moment, Zhanbo gave the result: "This check is indeed real, but you still have to withdraw it as soon as possible, otherwise it will expire."

Ziqiao grabbed Zhanbo's hand and said, "Zhanbo, you're not lying to me, are you? Are you sure it's true?"

"Zi Qiao, look, Daddy's account recently received a huge sum of money, so this check can really be cashed. You can rest assured."

"Could it be that what Dad just said is true?" Ziqiao still found it a little unbelievable.

"What did your father say?" Yifei picked up the water glass, as if thinking: where should Ziqiao start drinking next.

"Dad just told us that when he was in Moscow, he met a woman named Elizabeth. Her husband died and she inherited a large fortune. After eating my dad's sausages, she fell in love with him and insisted on marrying him. I originally thought he was in some trouble, but now it seems that it's all true?" Surprise flashed across Lu Ziqiao's face.

"The sausage you are talking about is the Moscow dinner that dad invited us to have tonight, right? Can you win a girl's heart with just this?" Zhan Bo found it a little unbelievable.

"Stupid, the point isn't what you eat, the point is that you made it for her with your own hands. It's filled with your heart, so it has added value. As the saying goes: If you want to win a girl, you have to win her stomach first. Learn from this, Zhanbo."

Zhanbo was taking notes frantically in a notebook he had taken out from somewhere, giggling foolishly from time to time.

[Wanyu, Wanyu, this is the meat sauce noodles I made for you myself, please try it.

Wow, Zhanbo, did you make this? It looks delicious.

Hehe, you're welcome, Wanyu, this is what I should do, hehe. 】

Hu Yifei rolled her eyes speechlessly, then handed the cup to Lu Ziqiao.

"Zi Qiao, do you plan to eat it yourself? Or should I help you eat it?"

Looking at the smiling Hu Yifei and the cup of water handed to him, Lu Ziqiao's mouth twitched. No way, are you serious?

In the evening, everyone in the apartment gathered in 3602. While eating the Moscow dinner prepared by Dumas (the sausages were really delicious), they listened to him talk about his journey (the story was really wonderful).

"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.

Ziqiao opened the door and saw a lady wearing sunglasses and fashionable clothes standing at the door with a smile on her face.

Before Ziqiao could speak, the lady introduced herself: "Hello, I'm Elizabeth, Alexandre Dumas' fiancée."

"Godfather, I'm looking for you." Ziqiao first shouted into the house, then said to Elizabeth: "Hello, stepmother." and kissed her hand.

Dumas came out and looked at Elizabeth: "How did you find this place?"

Elizabeth took his arm and said, "Dear, I can forgive you for not answering my call. Come with me. I have arranged a driver to take us to Shangri-La. The pastor will be waiting for us at the wedding venue at noon tomorrow. And I have already arranged a suite for our wedding."

Ziqiao was laughing secretly on the side. Hu Yifei and others also came to the door and watched the scene silently.

Dumas was unusually nervous: "You've thought so much about me! But..."

"Are you going to reject me again? It doesn't matter. I can handle it. This is the eighth time anyway." Elizabeth was somewhat used to it.

"No, I'll go with you this time." Dumas changed his usual behavior and agreed.

"Really!" Elizabeth was excited.

"Wait a moment, I have a few words to say to my son." Dumas looked at Lu Ziqiao.

"Ziqiao, I was a little hesitant when I came here this time. I didn't know if I should really find a place to settle down, this free cloud of mine. I didn't want to admit that I was old, and I was trying to deceive myself into thinking that I could return to the days of wandering the world with my proudest son."

"But now I realize that my son has truly grown up. Humph, tell me, can I still not age?"

"Look, now you have your own home and many lovely friends. I should feel relieved. Perhaps this is fate." He glanced at Elizabeth and said, "I should enjoy my old age and spend it peacefully."

Ziqiao's eyes were a little moist and he nodded seriously.

Dumas patted Ziqiao's shoulder and said, "I'm leaving."

Lu Ziqiao also hugged Alexandre Dumas: "Dad."

"My dear, our car is waiting outside." Elizabeth's eyes were always on Dumas.

Upon hearing this, Dumas smiled and said, "No need. Marriage is a place of execution. I would rather walk there." Then he shook his head and walked down the stairs in a free and easy manner.

Elizabeth looked at his back and smiled: "Oh, no matter from which angle you look at him, he is so charming."

Lu Ziqiao also said: "My father is such a perfect man."

"Yes. Well, I won't say any more. I have to follow in his footsteps, otherwise I don't know where this cloud of freedom will float to. Goodbye, godson." With that, Elizabeth left gracefully.

"Goodbye, godmother!" Ziqiao waved his hand until he could no longer see the figure.

"Wow, Ziqiao's godfather is so charming." The four people watching the fun spoke out together.

Looking at the four exposed heads, Ziqiao was startled: "Hey, when did you get here?"

"We have always been here! x4"
